I never warmed to him after he scored against Hart late on when we won 3-2 at Swansea. I had money on 3-1, Kolarov last scorer and after an agonising twenty odd minutes, Bony snatched my winnings away. He cost me a few hundred quid with that goal.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Pep has just said that Braaf has “six or seven players” that play in his position. I wish he wouldn’t say stuff like that. We’re losing kids. And saying that he’s got to get through up to seven other players must be disheartening for Braaf.

Yep, and that is why we are losing so much young talent, McNeil is another example

But he's not wrong. Kids arent going to make it to the first team while Pep is here and while the club are hunting trophies.

Garcia is a prime example. Pep likes him and the club wants to keep him yet theyre still going to go buy 2 CBs this summer and keep Garcia as 4th CB meaning he only plays cups or when someone is injured. If someone as valued as Garcia can't make it then that's a bad sign for others

I'd say Garcia is second choice ATM, behind Laporte. Pep obviously hasn't a lot of faith in Otter or Stones, who the two CB's are going to replace.
So he should get regular starts

I think Pep is looking to get a strong centreback in place to be first 11 and Garcia will replace otter with Ake replacing stones in the pecking order

Sounds about right. Whoever the four are, they'll be rotated, that's the Pep way.
Anyone expecting to play every game like Dunny and Distin used to is going to be disappointed.

Or Komany and Lescott. They forged a great partnership.

If we don’t have a settled partnership in defence, we don’t win the PL again.

Am hoping Pep has learnt that from this season

Once they denied Gabriels goal against Spuds , it was obvious we were going to be denied winning it.

So they have their vermin winning it . Games over for them now .

Not really a transfer, but I'm shocked at Sessegnon at Spurs. I honestly thought he'd tear the PL apart, and be a shoe-in for Young PoTY, possibly even contending for some of the senior awards. I know he was injured at the start of the campaign, but they've hardly got great squad depth on the left.
